Obama Wants NRA Ads Banned

Saturday, September 27, 2008 8:10 PM

By: Newsmax staff

The Obama camp has been threatening television and radio stations to keep them from airing anti-Obama ads.

The latest target is the NRA and stations in Pennsylvania.

Earlier this week, the National Rifle Association's Political Victory Fund released a series of radio and television spots to educate gun owners and sportsmen about Barack Obama's longstanding anti-gun record. In response to the NRA-PVF ads, a clearly panicked Obama campaign and the Democratic National Committee (DNC) are doing everything they can to hide Obama's real record by mounting a coordinated assault on the First Amendment.

They have gone to desperate and outrageous lengths to try to silence your NRA by bullying media outlets with threats of lawsuits if they run NRA-PVF's ads.

The Obama camp is particularly angry with an NRA ad entitled "Hunter" which lays out Obama's record on gun control.

Obama is a Chicago thug politician. His crudeness was evident in last night's debate.

Obamamama couldn't threaten his way out of a paper bag. Just exactly how will Obama stop these stations? Obama is an arrogant PUNK and he needs to be called out and called out NOW on his threats.

The NRA should run and ad discussing the lengths Obama is going to to keep voters from the truth about his record on the 2nd Amendment.

Why? Because for the past 40 years the media has been liberal and covers up liberals’ deceptions and frauds.
It started with Cronkite and continues even moreso today.

ha ha, I can see why the Obama team hates the “Hunter” ad — it exposes phony Obambi perfectly!!!

Now if only the line had been.....

“You don’t have to be bitter to know that Obama is a lying gun-grabbing socialist weasel!”

But it’s still a great ad.

It’s finally happened. The Left has reached critical mass and no longer need to conceal their agenda.

The film & press can now openly declare themselves and actively work for the DNC. The “Dignity Battalions” are already mobilizing in Missouri and Massachusetts. The last two generations have been sufficiently indoctrinated in the ways of Marx and Lenin.

Someday, I will tell my grandchildren about what it was like under Reagan, before they ship out for ObamaCamp for the summer.

You might want to buy one or two before they take them away from us.

Go to the gun range and learn to handle it like it’s part of your hand.
Get CC license and feel good about yourself. It’s an American heritage and right, the commie’s don’t want us to have.

I despise this man and what he stands for in ways I could never despise the Clintons. This false messiah makes the Clintons look like flag waving patriots. His candidacy highlights two things - 1) freedom requires constant vigilance 2) a good deal of the American electorate are morons willing to give those hard won freedoms away. God help us all if this monster is elected.

They probably will if we send enough money and even suggest they use it for the ad. LOL In fact, I'm calling my local guy.

Obama is a communist.

Communists do not respect free speech.

The Liberal Messiah (I think he really believes he is the LM) can not tolerate any blasphemous opinions. People have to understand that to vote for him is to vote to repeal the First Amendment.

Of course, if he does become President and tries to crush the First Amendment, the Second Amendment will come to the rescue.

Much longer than 40 years. Read about people like Walter Duranty and I.F. Stone.

Nobody Knows Obama’s Record on Guns Better Than I Do,’ Says ISRA Executive Director Richard Pearson
SPRINGFIELD, Ill., Sept. 24 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ — The following was released today by the Illinois State Rifle Association (ISRA):

“One of the most blatant lies ever to come from a politician’s mouth,” is how the ISRA is characterizing a recent statement by U.S. Senator Barack Obama. Speaking in the latest issue of “Field & Stream,” Obama claims that Illinois sportsmen know him as an advocate for their rights. On the contrary, Obama’s voting record while a state senator clearly indicates that he has nothing but contempt for the law-abiding firearm owner.

“Any sportsman who counts Barack Obama as one of his friends is seriously confused,” said ISRA Executive Director Richard Pearson. “Throughout his tenure in the Illinois Senate, Obama served as one of the most loyal foot soldiers in Mayor Daley’s campaign to abolish civilian firearm ownership. While a state senator, Obama voted for legislation that would ban and forcibly confiscate nearly every shotgun, target rifle and hunting rifle in the state. Obama also voted for bills that would ration the number of firearms a law-abiding citizen could own, yet give a pass to the violent thugs who roam our streets. And, inexplicably, Obama voted four times against legislation that would allow citizens to use firearms to defend their homes and families.”

“Let us also not forget that Obama served as a director of the Joyce Foundation,” continued Pearson. “While on the Joyce Foundation board, Obama funneled tens of millions of dollars to radical gun control organizations such as the Illinois Council Against Handgun Violence and the Violence Policy Center.”

“If Senator Obama considers his legislative record and his philanthropic endeavors to be acts of advocacy on behalf of sportsmen’s rights, then I submit that the Senator is seriously confused as well,” asserted Pearson.

“Nobody knows Obama’s record on guns better than I do, and it’s rotten to the core,” said Pearson. “I’ve been involved in Illinois politics nearly as long as Obama has been alive. In that time, I have never encountered a legislator who was more hostile towards or more disinterested in sportsmen’s rights than Barack Obama.”

_ _ _

The ISRA is the state’s leading advocate of safe, lawful and responsible firearms ownership. Founded in 1903, the ISRA represents the interests of over 1.5 million law-abiding Illinois firearm owners.

great post -- bears re-emphasis:

“Nobody knows Obama’s record on guns better than I do, and it’s rotten to the core,” said Pearson. “I’ve been involved in Illinois politics nearly as long as Obama has been alive. In that time, I have never encountered a legislator who was more hostile towards or more disinterested in sportsmen’s rights than Barack Obama.”
